Fenna's Lass impressed with the manner of her bumper and maiden hurdle successes and is likely to progress again for her in-form yard. However, down half a mile in trip here, she may find TED HASTINGS too strong. The Elliott yard has such an outstanding record at this track and their gelding arrives on the back of a facile success at Cartmel last month. Two from three over timber, he sets a good standard. Battle Of Toro was seven and a half lengths behind the selection at the Lake District venue and there seems no reason why tables should be turned on just 2lb better terms.

Fenna's Loss (IRE) 5-4fav (11-4) Tracked leaders, headway to ease into narrow lead after 3 out, shaken up and in command before last, ridden out run-in, comfortably, won at Uttoxeter 2m 4f mdn (4) gd in Jul beating Valamix (11-4) by 4 1/4l, 6 ran.
